The potency of chitosan-Pinus merkusii extract nanoparticle as the antioxidant and anti-caspase 3 on lead acetate-induced nephrotoxicity in rat

Abstract: The current study was carried out to evaluate the antioxidant and anti-caspase 3 activity of chitosan- Pinus merkusii nanoparticle in against lead acetate-induced nephrotoxicity in rats. chitosan- P. merkusii nanoparticle was characterized by dynamic light scattering (DLS) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). The male rats were divided into control group (rats were given with distilled water), lead acetate group (rats were injected with lead acetate 15 mg/kg BW … Show more

“…UA, SCr and BUN are renal-function indicators. In most instances, abnormal increases in the level of UA, SCr and BUN are caused by kidney damage ( Sudjarwo et al., 2019 ). The present study showed that the levels of UA, SCr and BUN in rats exposed to lead are significantly increase compared with the control group.…”

“…An increase in oxidative stress also causes cell death and oxidation of macromolecule ( Sas et al., 2018 ; Bonaterra et al., 2020 ). SOD, CAT, GSH-Px are important antioxidant enzymes; they constitute a mutually supportive defense mechanism against ROS ( Sudjarwo et al., 2019 ). We showed that lead acetate could induce obvious oxidative stress in the kidneys of weaning rats ( Figure 2 ).…”
